millage of one way trip and Dbu, the average mileage buffer to
return from that trip. The Eff is the EVs driving consumption
and the Effi is the EVs inverter efficiency. In order to ensure a
safe trip, the value Esaf is taken into account. The safety range
was chosen in order to represent the way to the nearest first aid
point in case of emergency, from any starting point on the
Island. The average annual electricity consumption is
2 188kWh per EV. In terms of Portuguese electricity prices
and offpeak charging, the annual consumption is only 134.
However the limitations factor for customers would be the

B. Peak power
Peak power is used to cover the highest peaks of power
demand. The peaking power plants generally run only when
there is a high electricity demand. These power plants are used
to cover peak hours, especially during afternoon demand
peaks. The peak power plants operation time can vary from
many hours a day to just a few hours a day or year. Operation
time depends on the condition of the electric grid and highly
influences its unit operation costs. Related to these conditions
and to the fewer year usage, these power plants are normally
designed to operate with more expensive fuel than baseload
power plants, as they are designed as low capital cost power
plants. The construction of more efficient peak power plants to
be used only a few hours a year could be very expensive and
makes no economical sense. Because the peak power plants are
confronted with the fluctuating power demand conditions, the
gas turbines or fuel or diesel engines are normally used. In So
Miguel, these power plants are constituted by large diesel
engines.
The peak power plant is usually the last economically
efficient power plant in the electricity production chain. The
starting or stopping of the peak power plant is usually
somehow penalized in price terms. Peak power plants are paid
per generated kWh, generated peak power is more expensive
than base load power [10].
